"Call to Greatness"

I'm climbing…

Assembling my way to the top,

Contending for my place.

The ladder.

The ladder of vivacity and

endearment has denied me before,

I journey to the top,

It ruptures,

I tumble,

Back down below,

Crashing down to meet the rocky soil.

To only be able to sit back and watch,

As you and her reassemble a broken relationship.

I watch in pain,

As you move with the months,

…March, April…May,

May was the worst month of all.

Love,

A lost cause.

Life,

A forbidden reason for being.

Living,

An exempt for being weak.

You,

An excuss for living.

My imagination is a reality in it's own.


I long only for a purpose,

What's my purpose?

I sit back and watch you fall in love,

As I fall once again,

Staggering to my feet,

Only to be pained even more,

By both of you exchanging vows.

My fate is sealed.

To love you,

From the background.

But your love subsides for another,

It feels as though now,

I hate you.

Both of you.

Love,

Hate,

They may mean different things,

But,

In a sense,

They long for the same.

A purpose,

A target.

They climb the ladder,

Only to render at the bottom once again.

They failed.

But I will not.

Okay, I know, I know. This is NOT one of my best poems, but I haven't written a poem in a while so I figured, you know, why not? I know what your thinking, NEVER again write a poem when your sick, cause they suck! I know….TRUST me. But yeah, I AM sick, so you know, when I update on my stories, please, don't be cruel if they aren't the best, it's just that, well, I am REALLY sick, and for the next 2 weeks I'll be gone visiting my BFF in Alabama! I am sooo excited: ) So, please, like I said, PLEASE don't be cruel! If you review on my stories or on this or any other one of my poems, then, please, by all means, Do NOT FLAME ME! I am having an AWFUL week so far! I've been sick this whole time! So, help me out and hope that I get better in the next 6 days, that's when I see Molly!
Well, bye for now!
Promising……

Okay, in the future, my poems will NOT suck like this one alright?

PROMISE!

Love always,
